Yeah I'm free, free fallin'....


ANOTHER BUCKET LIST ANNOUNCEMENT!

It's almost time to check off this , which is currently #22 on my bucket list. Auggh! This is kind of a big one!

August 20th I'm heading over to our neighboring state of Wisconsin where I will be strapped to some dude and pushed out of a plane at 13,000 feet. Apparently this is WAY cooler than the competition, who only lets you fall from 10,000 feet. It's all in celebration of my baby bro's 21st birthday, and his posse of wild jumpers has grown to include both myself and my father. This, of course, has left my mother steaming mad - she claims she didn't work so hard to keep him alive all this time just to throw him out of a plane now that he's healthy. No word on how she feels about us kids taking the plunge. Don't you think it would be more fun if she just joined us? C'mon mom, it would greatly increase your street cred. :)

Your mom should definitely join the madness. :) Do you get to do cool formations when someone is on your back?

I'm pretty sure we don't do formations - and in fact, I'd like everyone to be as far as possible out of my way during the jump/fall part :)
